About this property
4BD 4.5BA Pet-Friendly Riverfront Home
"Dragonfly Rest" is a brand-new 4 BR, 4 ½ B home featuring expansive Saco river views. Beaches, hiking trails, Main Street Saco, and the Downeaster train are close by. 20 min from PWM, and 96 miles from Boston, come experience “the way life should be.” If you're seeking sand and sun, leaf-peeping, lighthouse-hunting, kayaking, hiking, fishing, or just a great place to get snowed in, this house is the answer!
The home’s light-filled main level features an open-concept gourmet kitchen, with ample seating throughout the kitchen, dining, and living spaces, where you can enjoy epic sunsets and a cozy wood-burning stove.
Step from there into the first master bedroom, which includes a king bed with river view, en-suite bath with double vanity, spa shower and walk-in closet. On the wooded side of the home, you will discover a secluded and serene three-season porch.
The lower level of the home features a king bedroom, second living space with queen size sleeper sofa, kitchenette, desk, and full bath. From the living room, walk out to an outdoor seating area facing the river with Adirondack chairs and a Solo firepit.
On the upper level, you will find a third king bedroom suite, with river view, double vanity, soaking tub, spa shower, and walk-in closet. The fourth bedroom, on the North side of the home, has twin beds that fit together seamlessly to form a fourth king bed at your option, plus a full, private bathroom. Finally, make the 18-foot-long balcony your destination for relaxation, coffee, yoga, boat-watching, bird-watching, star-gazing, and all things restorative.
The river is tidal, and the view changes constantly. It's stunning! There is no dock or direct access to the water from the property. Marston's Marina is just up the road for fishing charters.
Top quality linens, Sterns & Foster mattresses, bath towels, beach towels, dishware, cookware, lobster pot, appliances, cleaning supplies, shampoo, conditioner, and body wash are provided, as well as beach chairs, umbrellas, wagon, cooler, firewood, binoculars, and more. Our goal is to provide everything you'll need for a wonderful vacation in Maine.
There is parking for 3 cars. 4 cars may be allowed with permission from the owner.
Please note that Nathan, the property manager (and brother of the owner), lives in the apartment above the separate garage. You may see him occasionally doing maintenance, but his goal is to be non-intrusive. He is there to help if you need him.
